Bishop Long's sexual acts and relationships with the captioned
victims occurred before the victims were eighteen years of age.

unaware of the aforesaid practices, many of Bishop Long's victims
are known throughout the Church as the "Spiritual Sons" of Bishop
Long .

Bishop Long typically engages in a private spiritual
ceremony described as a "covenant" between himself and each young
Spiritual Son. The Covenant Ceremony includes and exchange of
vows and assurances by Bishop Long that he will forever protect
the young men from harm by anyone. Bishop Long uses various
rituals in the Ceremony including candles, exchange of jewelry,
and discussion of Biblical verses that reinforce the spiritual
apd God- like connection between himself and the young men.

Bishop Long uses monetary funds from the accounts of
NB'MBC and Longfellows, among other corporate and non-profit
cqrporate accounts, to entice the chosen Spiritual Sons with

By DALE RUSSELL/myfoxatlanta

ATLANTA, Ga. - Sources tell FOX 5’s 1-Team that the mysterious fifth accuser in th^Bishop Ejldfe Long)sexual
misconduct scandal can’t talk about the case because he’s part of the secret settlement. Byl'lie carriiial<e music.
Senior 1-Team reporter Dale Russell tracked what Centino Kemp wrote about during thp^e settlement talks.

In the lyrics to his music and the writings on Facebook and Twitter, Centino Kemp, 22, shows a range of
emotions-- from anger and bitterness to sexual provocation, and at times a flamboyant sense of humor.

When people find his songs on YouTube or iTunes, what will color their listening is that as the 1-Team uncovered,
Centino Kemp was involved in the Bishop Eddie Long sexual misconduct settlement talks.

When Russell caught up with Kemp outside a small recording studio , he would not talk about Bishop Long. After
walking away from the question, he later sprinted to his awaiting limousine and drove off.

Our sources say after four young men filed sexual misconduct suits against Bishop Eddie Long, Centino Kemp
came forward with more allegations of sexual misconduct.

One source says Centino Kemp, who was raised in the Bahamas, met Bishop Eddie Long years ago during a
visit to New Birth Missionary Baptist Church while he was a teenage student in a Florida college. The relationship
meant enough for him to tattoo Eddie Long's name on his wrist, followed by the words, “Never a Mistake, Always
a Lesson.”

He didn't know the other young men and never filed suit, but our sources say he was part of the settlement in the

Bishop Long case.

The final settlement talks took place during the week of April 1 7, including one intensive, all-night negotiation at
the DeKalb County Courthouse. On Kemp’s Facebook page on April 20, he wrote, “Today may change my life
forever,” and “Mother I’m sorry.”

His Facebook page for that day shows he said he was at the Colony Square Starbucks, located in the same

http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/dpp/news/iteam/bishop-eddie-long-fifth-accuser-takes-to-fa... 7/29/2011

building as the young men's attorney, B.J. Bernstein. Then, an hour later, he posted that he was at the DeKalb
County Courthouse, where the settlement talks took place.

Two days later, Judge Johnny Panos, who presided over the lawsuits, said the case was all but settled. When the
money was delivered to the young men in late May, Kemp wrote on his Facebook page, "I may be bad but I got
paid perfectly good for it."

Soon after the settlement, Centino Kemp began recording music in $100 dollar an hour sessions in studios in
Atlanta. Video shot inside the studio shows Centino at work. Some of the songs are profanity-laced, sexually-
charged, upbeat songs told from the point of view of a bitter lover, like Kemp’s song titled Pornography.

Bishop Eddie Long had no comment about the l-Team’s story regarding Centino Kemp , but the young man who
stayed anonymous and quiet during the sexual misconduct scandal is now letting his music do his talking.
